• 73. Intentional Practices for an Aligned Life: How I Remain Organized, Consistent, & Connected

  "I love you where you are and I love you where you're going,"This is a mantra I have been using in my life for the last few weeks - one I have shared with all of you on this show, and one that defines what this episode is truly about. A few episodes ago, you asked for a template to my personal tracking techniques - ones that have held me accountable and have allowed me to take this The Road Less Traveled. You asked & I listened.On today's episode, I walk you through the specific intentional practices that have changed my life - including one that I created and have used for years called "Threading"This "threading" technique has been the basis for all of my growth - holding me accountable with seasonal, monthly, weekly, and daily goal-setting & checking-in as it relates to my alignment and overall health/wellness. & The older I get, the more I realize that health truly is wealth. In this discussion, I break it all down + give you a peak into my inner world: a Type A, highly sensitive, virgo rising who loves organization but also loves freedom of expression, creativity, and flow - someone who has learned how to manage an ADHD brain without medication and with peace + purpose. This episode is about the devotion to living intentionally while remaining committed to expansion - a hard balance to strike which requires practice.These practices are how I have remained consistent, worked 2 full-time jobs (one corporate, one creative), quit one of them to pursue this podcast full time, all while learning about what it takes to be a friend to myself, and then actually being that friend to myself.I am sharing my template with you, a full in-depth breakdown of how I use it, and how you can format it to fit your needs and adjust to you.We also talk simple every day practices for morning, day-time, and the evening which allow life to feel soft, full, and sweet. Actionable, implementable tips for practicing the art of "I love you where you are, and I love you where you're going."EnjoyxxTHE TEMPLATEJoin the Community for Free access to the Template (+all FSO Guidebooks), Discounted/Free access to all workshops, monthly guided meditations, bonus content, + community group chat connection!

• 72. Create or be Consumed: A Wake-Up Call to Your Power

  You are exactly where you need to be to create something only you can create. And the call is not coming from the phone you spend your life connected to – the call is coming from inside the house. It’s coming from inside of you. It's subtle - and you must be open to listen to it. But our entire society has been structured to keep you disconnected from it. We live in an age of over-consumption - the bleak deafening of our senses with more, more, more. With blue light and dopamine. With gazes of longing and attempts to fill our hearts with distraction and commiseration. We run away from ourselves by running straight into the eye of the storm, taking in other people's lives as a past-time to forget our own and taking on the weight of the world as a means to surrender to the powerlessness we feel inside of us.And every day that goes by where we live our lives half-asleep, in the caffeinated neglect to ourselves and our inner being, we drift further from our senses and our ability to wake ourselves up. We are all looking for the same thing – the ability to live awake and embodied and to feel more deeply - yet we reject the feelings that are uncomfortable to hold.And in that, we reject our own unique ability to alchemize them in the way the world most needs. What you want to create is not about you. It is about the collective devotion to something greater than the suffering this world will suffocate us with if we let it. Our lives - messy and undone and beautiful and chaotic - have asked us to create the perfect creations for the conditions we are in - right now. Our lives are always asking us to take a big gulp of air from them and see what comes out when we exhale, see what we do with it, see how we transmute it. We were meant to alchemize, transmute, and be part of something greater than the numbness we have found ourselves apart of.This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who is struggling to push through the cracks of that numbness and live awake.This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who has ran from their intuitive impulses and denied their right to exist boldly, denied their right to be a creator.Your life is asking you to live it.The question is -- are you willing to listen?Youtube Video Here.xIF YOU ARE A FREQUENT LISTENER OF FSO, RATE THE SHOW ON YOUR PREFERRED STREAMING PLATFORM! & LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS EPISODE <3Free Grounding & Energy Cleansing Meditation on my Patreon :) Join the Community for Discounted/Free access to all workshops, monthly guided meditations, FSO guidebooks + bonus content, + community group chat connection! + Stay Connected through:MY NEWSLETTER (scroll to the end of the page to join!)Podcast Instagram: @figuringshiiitoutPersonal Instagram: @222vgfTikTok: butterflyfountainSubstackxxIf you liked this episode, you'll like this one too!

• 71. Consistency is Self-Respect: You are the Only One Standing in Your Way

  The only thing that guarantees our failure in any endeavor is if we give up. Yet, we flirt with our own uncertainty and imposter syndrome more than we embrace our dreams and goals, talking ourselves out of what we want and what it takes to get there instead of talking ourselves into action. We ask: "Is this worth it? Am I doing the right thing? Spending my time in the right places?" We self-sabotage our efforts to self-empower with limiting beliefs we don't realize are running the show. I must ask you:Do you break promises to yourself? Do you avoid the truths you're scared to share? Do you harbor resentment towards others for not being trustworthy or consistent or "there for you"? Do you realize that your world is simply a mirror - reflecting back to you what you move with? Let's make no mistake: We always know what it will take to get us where we want to go. Is it easy? No. Is it simple? Yes. All it takes - is showing up. Showing up with full conviction and alignment one day and showing up scared and unsure the next. Showing up fully, unapologetically, and with all of your fear at the surface ready to be dissolved with your courage. Showing up every day with what you have to give, being honest with yourself when you can give more and being even more honest with yourself when you have nothing to give.This episode is about the deepest form of self-respect we can build: Consistency. Making & keeping promises to ourselves. And getting the f*ck out of our own way.Consistency as a form of self-respect (Video)xJOIN THE INNER CHILD HEALING WORKSHOP ON 1/29!Inner Child Healing Workshop on the New Moon in Aquarius (1/29) Tickets+ Join the Community for Discounted/Free access to all workshops, monthly guided meditations, FSO guidebooks + bonus content, + community group chat connection!

• 69. Staying Awake + Keeping an Open Heart in a World of Numbness & Disassociation

  “Greet the piece of you that is longing to unravel. Hold it. Move the furniture out of the way so that it can collapse onto the floor like a puddle. Let it simmer in the space between your breath and let yourself taste the salt from the tears you may have never gotten to cry. Fold into your bones. Allow the whispers of what’s left to come through you. Don’t rush to rebury that hatchet. Learn to feel pain and then learn to feel joy.Learn to feel them both fully and boldly,because you cannot have one without the other.Learn to feel. Learn to feel as though one day, you may fall asleep & never wake up — because one day, you will.” - Words jotted in my December 2024 journalxIF YOU ARE A FREQUENT LISTENER OF FSO, RATE THE SHOW ON YOUR PREFERRED STREAMING PLATFORM!
